Clifton M. Smart III University Advancement Center Ribbon Cutting

Celebrate the opening of the Clifton M. Smart III University Advancement Center during a special ribbon cutting ceremony on Nov. 11. Following remarks from university leaders and project supporters, guests are invited to tour the state-of-the-art facility during an open house and experience the spaces designed to connect and inspire Bears for generations to come.
From the groundbreaking in April 2025 to opening its doors just 19 months later, the University Advancement Center represents Missouri State's commitment to building lifelong connections with alumni, donors, students and friends. Join us as we mark this historic occasion and welcome the Bear community into its new home.
